ukw = ungerade Woche/ odd week / 45. KW e.g. 02/11/20;
gkw = Gerade Woche/ even week / 44. KW e.g. 26/10/20
wöch= wöchentlich/each week
                                                              .

                                                                                                                      16

Credit Points and self studies

= ECTS for the workload = quantitative and Grades = knowledge

Workload includes: lectures, tutorials, homework, exam preparation,..
1 ECTS = 30h workload + 5 ECTS = 150h
                                                              .
Example:
15 lectures 2x 15h = 30h plus
15 tutorials 2x 15h= 30h  90h for independent studying, preperations, etc.

Importance of self studies is very high for a successful study program.
Math, Microeconomics,…. Library studies, study groups,….

ECTS = European Credit Transfer System (Bologna 1999)
